Do Property Agents need to register?
A. Any person or organisation that owns property that they rent out to tenants will need to register. However, there may be some Property Management companies or Agents that do not themselves own properties. They would not be required to register as landlords. However, a landlord must declare any such agents they use on their application for registration, and these agents must be judged fit & properfor this application to be successful. Therefore agents that do not themselves own property will still be subject to the fit & proper test.
